Typically, after plaster, its about a month or so before you can use your robot cleaner. Check with your PB though, as he might have some time limit for warranty considerations. So whatever the PB says is what you should do.

Water is starting to look better. The brushing is getting very old. When can I use the cleaner? :/

WoW
Looks Awesome !!!
Well it's been a year and we are finally done with our project. Some small items left but the pool house is now functional and if we could just get some prettier weather we will really be able to enjoy it. shouldn't complain about rain around here but dang it a day off would be nice. 
The landscaping has really grown with all the rain!
Concrete bar with glass embedded. This was very diy and didn't quite turn out like we planned but still adds character to the project imo.
Side-back view of bathroom looking back towards pool.
Equipment area
Inside bathroom. Old barn wood from Pennsylvania. Besides the swinging bed it is my favorite part.
Turned a cooler into the bathroom sink. Looking for a vintage faucet to replace this
make shift one. If anyone has any ideas for where I can find one please let me know!

I'm looking forward to catching up on everyone else's projects. I have been away from this forum for too long!

I'm new to TFP, so I'm not familiar with your build thread. I think I'm speechless, and that's a rarity for me! Your place is amazing and stocked full of so many personal touches. I've looked over it twice and will be looking back over it, well..... over and over and over! So far I keep seeing new things.
I grew up with the Austin area being home base. I feel like I'm looking back at pieces of home. Puts a lump in my throat.
When I get my tongue back, I'll gush over everything I love about it! Hopefully, you don't get tired of praise.
Truly, thanks for sharing. And Hook 'em Horns! Suz.

Wow Suz! That is a sweet compliment. We wanted to build a pool very true to the hill country style. It is great to hear that it reminds you of home. I have been busy with this for so long that I haven't kept the thread updated but wanted to finally post the new pics. I really appreciate the praise as we have put our hearts into this. Can't wait to check all the new builds I have missed out on here!
Hook em Horns!

How do u ever go inside. It's absolutely stunning, so much detail. The bar is great also, and I love the placement of your pad. Great location for storage also.
Wow, amazing looking and love the style. Is there a state that the residents are more proud of their state than Texas? I think you'd be hard pressed to challenge that (see the lights in the patio).
You would have a hard time finding a state with more pride.
Texas born and proud!
Haha...we are definitely those obnoxiously proud Texans! Thank y'all for the kind words. We enjoy it.

Can't say I haven't thought that before! But you are only the 9th most proud state according to this report...http://www.movoto.com/blog/opinions/most-state-pride-states-map/
Time to up your game...I don't think I saw a big ol' star in the middle of your plaster...just sayin'.
